Abstract excerpt
The L5178Y/TK(+/-)-3.7.2C mouse lymphoma assay is used to quantitate the induction of thymidine kinase (TK)-deficient mutants. The mutants detected in the assay form colonies that can be distinguished as large or small. The induction of small-colony mutants has been associated with the induction of chromosome mutations. In the present paper, we compare the analysis of induced small-colony TK mutants with gross...
